Gilchrist Fires ….. Shows Mumbai Indians 4th defeat

Today it was a battle for survival between Mumbai Indians and Deccan Chargers. Both the teams having lost 3 matches were desperate to win this match. But Finally Adam Gilchrist was too heavy for Mumbai Indians and he easily led Deccan chargers to win the match by 10 wickets. The day clearly belonged to Adam Gilchrist.

Adam Gilchrist meant business today. In all 3 previous outings, he was not able to fire and prove his worth. But today he showed who Gilchrist is and answered all those criticizing him. His 100 came in just 42 balls and he ended up scoring 109 ( Not out) runs off  48 balls.

Deccan chargers is quite a relieved side today with their first win. The team of such great players has to continue the same rhythm and win few more matches to be a top contender for IPL DLF cup. If Symonds,Gilchrist and Afridi are in form, then no team can stop them.

On the other hand, Mumbai Indian are not able to come out of their loosing habit. Just coming out of Harbhajan controversy it is very difficult to regain momentum. Both Robin Uttappa and Sanat Jayasuriya  are not able show good cricket and they seem to be highly overpriced cricketers. Only young lad Abhijit Nayar is able to impress again and again with his mature cricket. The Mumbai Indians bowling is also not up to the mark. Shaun Pollack has lot of jobs to do. Sachin has to join to survive the Mumbai Indians team.
